Dear Jane:

"Universalism" is the belief that God will save all humanity. I believe this. There are many groups of Believers who teach Universalism. However, most of them also teach a plethora of heresies that are NOT Biblical Truths.  Therefore, I do not call myself a Universalist.

God be with you,
